If you initially had an access code for tickets for a particularly city it's definitely worth checking each day and seeing if any face value tickets have come on sale.

 

I was able to get a ticket for a friend for £60.50 for yesterday's Edinburgh show. It was listed as restricted view but she could see the big screen perfectly and it was only some parts of the stage that were restricted so she still saw TS plenty.

I'd definitely do that. Did you get that ticket on the day?

Thought Paramore were great on Friday tbh.

 

In terms of the scale of the production I'd say that even Reputation felt slightly bigger / more OTT

Sadly I never got off the 'waiting list' for a code for the London shows.  The touts on Stubhub seem to have got them all.

Yeah I don’t know much of them (considering how long they’ve been around) and they were really good. Might need to pay more attention.

I was the same up until two weeks before the gig. So keep an eye out for it. Mine came to the spam/promotions section of my email.

Yeah, I think I tried about 12pm. Had to keep searching for about 20 mins as people obviously had tickets in baskets but never checked-out. And then after one search a ticket was available.

Thanks, I'll keep an eye out.

 

Nothing yet though.

Cool show in Edinburgh for Night 3.

 

The first two and half hours or so are electric. Pure pop perfection. Sadly, it ends in a bit of a damp squib for me. The TTPD and Midnights stuff dragged.

 

Beyond stoked to get Exile and Dorothea.

 

Edinburgh was lovely too. Easily worth the 20 hour round trip.

Got back to Bournemouth after weekend in Edinburgh for TS last night ( Sunday) Great show- certainly value for money at 3hrs 15mins ( if we hadn’t also had to pay for flights and 2 nights hotel as well!!) Bit of a sh*t show on way out but we found the next tram station down so managed to get a seat! Feet were killing after 6 hours standing. Was front left standing so got good views and crowd was great -2 girls in front sang every word to all 44 songs!! 
It felt like she genuinely appreciated the crowd and certainly gave it her all. Not sure how she’s managed to do this every night! 
not sure we will ever see her on the farm now?

I signed up to the sale last year and have screenshot proof but Ticketmaster have no knowledge of my sign up so no chance getting a code for me. Been horrible trying to get them on resale!

[august1]

anyone got a Liverpool code going spare?

[GordonMcG]

I don't agree with the "doubt we'll ever see her on the farm" thoughts. Having been to the show I get why she's added an extra Dublin date as opposed to doing it this year - the tour is her very own mini-festival and she's clearly making an absolute fortune.

 

She'll play Glastonbury at some point though, I think it's just going to take the current fever around her to slow down from where it currently is. Could be in the next five years, maybe 10, maybe 20, but at some point it will be the right fit and she'll headline. And it will be fantastic.

I would not be surprised if she stopped for a bit after this tour- maybe start a family which she has said she wanted if relationship with Travis is going well- who knows.

I mean - this is the peak of the parabola I think. I dunno if this level of success can be sustained by anyone.

For those who went to Edinburgh - was the standing just a regular GA free for all? Or did they use barriers and organise people into different sections? Just wondering when to arrive for Wembley and what the queue situation will be - thanks!

I was in front left standing and it was just that whole big area you could go wherever from what I could see. VIP tickets get in an hour early I think.

I think the main issue right now would be the younger fans who would get tickets on the slightest rumour, insist they won't be camping and then drag the festival through the mud on social media for making it clear its not a day gig or even just when they don't get a ticket. Maybe the militancy will calm down and allow for it in the future.

Still boggles my mind how many people thought there was a good chance (saw comments on here saying as high as 50% chance) she was going to randomly pop up at the farm in the middle of 20 month long worldwide stadium tour to headline one festival

 

She's turning 35 this year and in a relationship with a fellow American so it's reasonable to assume once this mammoth tour is over she will be looking to take a well earned extended international touring break, especially if they decide to start a family

This is not even close to being an issue. It's such a made up problem that suddenly Glasto would be chock full of swifites if there were rumours. By that logic 2020 would have been filled with Swifties if it had happened but it clearly wouldn't have been. 

 

These people are not going to be obsessed with her doing glasto when shes doing like 150 other dates

Until the Dublin dates appeared, she had the whole weekend free a week after her last London date and a week before her next European date, so it looked more than feasible, particularly as she sort of 'owes' us one after the 2020 cancellation.

 

Agree about the second bit though.

Nope, the first two Dublin dates were included in the initial announcement. People were speculating because she (at that point) had the Sunday free.

 

Which was batshit crazy. A 3rd Dublin show was always likely and even if it didn't materialise there was no plausible scenario under which she could transplant this show to the Pyramid overnight.

Yeah this is correct. 

 

I think if you looked at it at a glance then you can see why people thought that. It's clear though that that setup obviously would not be anywhere near possible at Glasto. It's hard to see where Glasto could fit in tbh. I think Eras will stretch into 2025 then a couple years off you're talking 2028 but also it would have to fit in to a wider tour. And there is 0 need for her to do festivals now unlike in 2019/20.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Obviously there was 2 years of pando in the middle but it was 6 years between the Rep gigs and Eras. Operating on a similar timeline would mean she's not back in the UK until 2028 earliest.
